So, you might have seen this girl on my gallery more than once.

This is Malia Ware. Her name is a pun on the word "malware", which fits, considering that she is a computer virus.

I wrote the lore for her already. Computer virus takes form of a computer game, whoever downloads it gets a virus, takes a humanoid form and kills the user, bla bla bla.

But, have you ever wondered how I got the design into place?

Hehe, I'm glad you asked.

Malia's design was inspired by Spinel (after turning evil) from Steven Universe, hairstyle and colour-wise, while the hair fringes with the dark grey streak in the middle was inspired by that of Xinyan from Genshin Impact (ironically, I'm not interested in the game). Lastly, her outfit was inspired by old anime emo art from the 2000s.
